GODLIKE: One o'Clock Wake-Up

"One o'Clock Wake-Up" follows the exploits of a handful of ordinary fighting men in the Battle of the Bulge, December 1944, as they set out to rescue an American unit trapped by the onrush of the dreaded ?berkommandogruppe SS Heinrich Himmler ? the first army composed entirely of Talents.

Written by GODLIKE co-creator Greg Stolze and Arc Dream editor Shane Ivey, and illustrated by GODLIKE author Dennis Detwiller, "One o'Clock Wake-Up" was featured at GenCon 2002 and GenCon UK 2003. It is the perfect introduction to the thrills and dangers of GODLIKE. (Length: 9 pages, with 2 illustrations and 3 maps.)

The Godlike system, and the game as a whole, is one that seems best at offering one-time quick runs to use for an evening's fun with your gaming group. This particular scenario fulfills that offer very well. Along with the Glazier run, which Arc Dream [...]

These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format

These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
